the 5-speed, (limited to protect the transmission, but can still
spin the tires at will in 1st and 2nd.
An automatic and a turbo are a great mix.
The torque convertor lets the motor spin up and produce

I like to think "point and shoot"
I tend to shift the auto manually to prevent full throtle downshifts.
I also try to limit full throttle up-shifts, by anticipating the coming
